Description of the invention (1) Technical background D £ 3 8 42 7 90 C2 has described a transparent and impact tough molding compound from 10 to 90% by weight of the solidified phase A), which is from 80 to 100% by weight % (Based on A) of methyl methacrylate and 20-0% by weight of a low molecular weight alkyl acrylate; and 90 and 10% by weight of B), which are distributed in the cured phase with less than -1 Tough phase at glass temperature, the average particle size of the tough phase is less than 130 nm, and the non-uniformity of the tough phase particle size is less than 0.5. And 0.5 to 5% by weight of a graft-crosslinking agent or a cross-linked monomer, which has three or more ethylenically unsaturated, radically polymerizable groups, and optionally, ethylenically unsaturated, radically polymerizable (Co) polymerized aliphatic co-monomer composition; and less than 0.05% by weight of water-soluble component C), with at least 15% by weight of the solidified phase and the tough phase covalently bonded. The processing of milky polymers into molding compounds is done in an extruder (extruder), especially a twin-screw exhaust extruder, in which the aqueous phase is eliminated in a liquid state. The report does not contain polymer in the wastewater. EP-A 0 683 028 describes a method for dehydrating a two-phase fluid mixture of a thermoplastic plastic melt and an aqueous phase in a reverse two-way screw extruder. In the meantime, the gelation of the plastic latex is directly performed in the gelling zone of the capture machine under the action of shear force at a temperature in the plastic thermoplastic range. The melt is pushed partially full of the screw lead ' and at least one of the screw leads constitutes a narrow and steep pressure gradient ', loading the solidified melt with cohesion. In this way, before the realm of the solidified melt, it flows under gravity, so that the cohesive water phase does not remain in contact with the solidified melt. Using this method you can make up to 5 5 weight. /. Original 539603 V. Description of the invention (2) The water content of the milky polymer of the starting water component is reduced to only 8% by weight. In the exhaust extruder, the remaining volatile components can be continuously and continuously removed in the exhaust zone forward or backward. The granules finally obtained at the granulation nozzle had a residual moisture of only 0.06% by weight. For the three-phase milky polymer, the residual polymer content as an organic substance in the waste water to be pressed out is in the range of 0.4% by weight. DE 1 97 1 8 597 C1 describes a method for dehydrating a two-phase fluid mixture composed of a thermoplastic phase and an aqueous phase. The method uses a two-phase fluid mixture to gel in an extruder, and has a dewatering zone with a convection screw In the twin-screw extruder, the gel is dehydrated and the moisture component is removed by exhaust. A single-screw extruder or a twin-screw extruder is used as the first extruder, in which the twin-screw extrusion The machine is equipped with a synchronous screw. For three-phase fluid polymers, a residual polymer content in the range of 0.35% by weight will be obtained in the pressurized wastewater. Problems and solutions For the dehydration of a thermoplastic plastic melt and water phase into a two-phase fluid mixture, it uses the gelation of the plastic melt and removes water from the solidified melt. There are problems in the extruder device. Wastewater It often contains undesirably high amounts of polymers. This problem is especially seen in milky polymers with a small particle size, which is usually difficult to gel; this problem also exists in milky polymers with larger particle sizes. Although it can be gelled and only a small amount of polymer components are present in the wastewater under standard conditions, the throughput rate must be increased. This will usually impair gelation efficiency, so the polymer content in the wastewater will rise again. The separated water phase is contaminated because it contains polymers and cannot be reused, especially missing. The polymer content in the waste increases the load of the sedimentation tank during wastewater treatment (CSB 値). -4- 603603 5. Description of the invention (3) As a result, the loss of the polymer reduces the yield of the thermoplastic plastic melt. It is therefore necessary to find a way to reduce the polymer content in the wastewater. This problem is solved by a method of reducing the polymer content in the wastewater. The two-phase fluid mixture formed by the thermoplastic plastic melt and the water phase is caused by the gelation of the plastic melt and the melting from the solidified melt in an extruder device. It is solved by removing the water pressure by the body, which is characterized in that the two-phase fluid mixture is added to the extruder device to indirectly introduce superheated steam with a temperature of at least 280t. Implementation of the invention The method of the present invention is suitable for a two-phase fluid mixture formed from a thermoplastic plastic melt and an aqueous phase to reduce the polymer content in the dewatered wastewater. The method is used to gel the plastic melt in an extruder device. Water is removed from the solidified melt by pressure. This method is particularly suitable for milky polymers having an average particle size (weight average) of 50 to 130 nanometers, as described in DE 3 8 42 796 C2 and specific examples. The inconsistency of the particle size may be, for example, 0.2 or less. The key point here is that the emulsion polymer is composed of latex particles composed of a thermoplastic solid phase and a crosslinked tough phase that can be used as a double-layer impact toughness modifier. This method is further suitable for use with both good gelable milky polymers 'which have an average particle size of more than 130 nm to 500 nm', especially from 250 to 400 nm, if the device is to be processed with increased throughput And for this reason, the polymer content in the wastewater increased again unexpectedly. Among them, it is especially called as a three-layer impact toughness modifier and used in polymethyl methacrylate emulsion polymer, as described in EP-A 0 683 028 539603 4) Described in DE 1 97 1 8 597 C1 and specific examples. If the methods described in EP-A 0 683 028 and DE 1 97 1 8 597 C1 are used to increase the polymer passing rate, for example, doubling, it will hinder the rule of heating and impair the gelation efficiency. As a result, the originally extremely low polymer content in the wastewater increased to more than 1% by weight, or even more than 2% by weight. If combined with the present invention, the plutonium has been reduced again by less than 1% by weight, especially below 0.5% by weight, in high throughput rates. The invention is therefore particularly suitable for latexes, which can usually contain 30 to 50% by weight of dispersed plastic particles, with an average particle size of, for example, 100 to 500 nm. The total relative water phase is 70 to 50% by weight, including all dissolved emulsifiers, gelling agents or other auxiliaries and impurities that may be present. The latex particles are made of thermoplastic plastic and can be processed into a molten state in an extruder. In addition, thermoplastics fall within the glass transition temperature range of 50 to 300 ° C or a temperature range that is sufficiently resistant to decomposition. The melting temperature in a twin screw extruder is usually between 100 and 250 ° C. The important types of thermoplastics are copolymers based on butadiene, styrene, and acrylonitrile as needed, as well as polyvinyl chloride, polyacrylate, or polymethacrylate. More important types are the various latexes of heterophasic thermoplastics, which contain latex particles with a thermoplastic solidified phase and a crosslinked tough phase. In this method, if necessary, other thermoplastics which are added to the twin-screw extruder in a solid or molten state can be used, and they are mixed with or compatible with the solidified phase plastic of the latex. The solid phase plastic is preferably composed of polymethyl methacrylate, and the tough phase plastic is mostly composed of cross-linked polybutyl acrylate. If it is to adjust the refractive index -6- 539603 V. Description of the invention (5) to match Polymethyl methacrylate can be mixed with styrene or benzyl acrylate for polymerization. A typical blend of this type, for example, contains 4 to 50% by weight of a heterophasic latex-plastic which may consist of 2 to 80% by weight of a polybutyl acrylate component and 20 to 98% by weight of a polymethyl methacrylate component. Composition; and 2 to 60% by weight of thermoplastic polymethyl methacrylate plastic. If the person to be added is not in the molten state, it may also be a heterophasic plastic latex mixed with a polymethacrylate latex, and the latex polymer is processed according to the method of the present invention. Extruder devices for dehydrating emulsion polymers generally contain a gelling zone in which the latex is gelled, with an operating pressure higher than the water vapor pressure in between, which uses shear elements such as kneading-, Mixing or plugging, etc., starts the phase separation. There is another dehydration section, from which water is removed. At this time, water-soluble components such as emulsifiers or electrolytes are also separated and removed. An exhaust section is isolated from the dewatering section by a pressurized and compacted congestion section. It is also used for further dehydration. Finally, a pump section is used to re-establish pressure and handle the discharge of the grain. These functions can be distributed across multiple units or extruders. The extrusion device can be composed of a twin-screw extruder with a counter-screw, in which the gelling of the plastic melt and the removal of water from the solidified melt are carried out. Such a device and a corresponding method are contained, for example, in EP-A 0 683 028. The extrusion device can be gelled by a single-screw extruder or a twin-screw extruder with a co-rotating screw; then a twin-screw extruder with a reverse screw is used for gelation and Pressure removal and other effects. Such a device and a corresponding method are described in DE 197 18 597 C1.
